Do you ever drive by a billboard and feel “slimed” by its picture or message? Do you ever cover your children’s eyes so they can’t see a billboard as you drive by?

What if you could move that “slime” picture off the billboard and put up something like this:

Well, now you can. And believe me, people not only notice but there are times a picture of the cross will save a life. Let me explain.

A couple of weeks ago I called a man named Marshall Books. Marshall works for an
outdoor company installing vinyls on their billboards. One hot summer morning
he had been contemplating suicide when he got a call to hang another billboard
vinyl. Marshall hung the vinyl, then
climbed down the ladder and stepped back to see a cross with the message, “He
is risen”. Marshall never put up a religious billboard before. He said, “I felt relieved. Something lifted off of my shoulders.” Marshall gave his heart to Jesus Christ.

Let’s pray and ask God to help us make a difference on the highways of America. There are people who are angry at God. But there are also people who are looking for answers. Let me know what you think?

About Lift the Cross of Jesus!

My day job is writing--I'm an author and publisher of a number of books. More on that later. But there is nothing of greater importance to me than the early morning hours I spend with the Creator of the Universe. Although He knows everything there is to know, His greatest delight isn't to give us knowledge, but to give us love.
My highest joy is to watch the sun rise with notebook in hand and write the words he speaks to my heart. I want to share some of those words with you here . . . words on the cross.

Yay for God!! I told my family and immediately they named the location where they wanted it to go–right outside an unsaved family member’s house! “He’ll see it every day on his way to work!” Acts of love . . .
